  • I recently started using TriliumNext (Trilium’s active fork) as a personal knowledge base for work and it’s really cool.

    One thing I didn’t expect is the multi-user editing feature means I can leave it open on multiple computers (and open it on others) and all the open copies are updated in real time (and it opens to exactly where I had been) so I don’t have to think much about merging edits or saving work before changing locations. I was very pleasantly surprised by that.

    My job has me jumping around computers a lot with various amounts of downtime in different locations and I want to continue at home etc. Being able to just browse to my server and be exactly where I was in Trilium is perfect.

    I was basically looking for how to run LogSeq entirely remotely as a PKM (without touching work computers). You can self host LogSeq but it still runs locally so you have to sync each time and other issues. Trilium is what works best for me.

    Another interesting option I came across is silverbullet.md



  • Doist is very much remote work and there were a lot of stories about them and how they operate during the pandemic because they had been doing it for so long. Global headquarters are in Portugal and CEO lives/works from Italy from what I can tell. They have offices/legal presence in many countries.

    Founder/CEO was born in Bosnia, grew up in Denmark, started todoist during college, used a startup incubator in Chile, later moved headquarters to Portugal, now gives lots of talks about internet entrepreneurship in EU.


  • Do you use a VPN? I’ve noticed a lot of cdn’s have become very hostile to VPNs over the last year. Initially I blamed the VPN but I’m pretty convinced it’s the cdn’s at this point*.

    *This is because I started using a private linode server as a tailscale exit node and boy does the internet hate that IP with a passion. Toggling between using that and my home computer as exit nodes is somewhat fascinating. The web is so rude when I browse from my linode box. So… now I use the linode exit node to let the jerks take themselves to the curb. Anyway images not loading randomly is one of the telltale signs of a jerk website. It even happens when using Google One VPN or Cloudflair’s WARP+ nowadays. Switch them off and use my residential IP exit node and presto it all works again.
